| | Hi Scott,
A similar question was just asked over at the Australian news group...

So this *hopefully* answers the question about what to use since it is only for lubrication.
As for amount...I show 5.4 oz per leg, but that is for the non-disc brake forks. V7 Sport and 850T call for 1.8 oz per leg. Sorry I can't give you a definitive answer here - and Guzziology is no help, either.

Shows the cartriges and assemblby, then speaks of not forgetting to install the proper amount...which I cannot find but Im sure its under a diff. bike since this front end came on later models.
Any help appreciated.
